ing, imported from Europeto advance
the Socialistic labor cause in this coun-

crease III the population Of the state

the percentage OF that increase is small
compared to- the increase ID the num-
Der Of convicts. il the system with all

convicts within q generations will be
something fearful to contemplate.
